“It’s fine. I still need to return to the station to work on the case. You should have an early rest.” Mandy shook her head and drove off after that.

Quinn closed the door and came to Chase’s room.

She knocked on it and asked, “Are you asleep, Chase?”

There was no answer from the room. Quinn took out her key to open the door.

It was empty.

Quinn suddenly felt a little disappointed.

Chase did not come home.

It was the middle of the night

Why was he not home yet?

Could he have been in an accident?

Quinn scared herself with this thought and wanted to call Chase on the phone.

She did not realize that she had already accepted Chase during their time of living together.

Even though this man who suddenly barged into her life would sometimes say ridiculous things, she had become used to him.

Just as she was about to call him, she heard the door open downstairs.

Chase was back.

Quinn was relieved. She went downstairs to check him over properly before asking, “Where did you go at

    The Harrigans no longer looked down on the survivor of the orphanage as they now felt an invisible knife to their throats. Any one of them could be killed at any time.Even the patriarch of the Harrigans, John, and Huey, who was in a wheelchair, were both fearful.“John, what… What should we do now?” the second son of the Harrigans, Caleb, asked palely.He had the most fear among everyone present.Tyson and Harlem were both dead, and they were fourth and third in the family.Could he be next?John’s expression was frighteningly dark.They had already put out a handsome reward to capture that little bastard, and the reward money was increasing every day.Unfortunately, they could not even obtain any news about him.That little bastard was like a demon from hell who refused to go away.John’s phone suddenly rang.He froze when he saw who the caller was. He quickly picked up the phone.His attitude changed after he hung up as he burst out laughing. “We have good news, everyone

    There was something bloody in the hands of the young man. He smiled at John and everyone else. “Are you the Harrigans?”“Ye… Yes, we are.”John nodded quickly and asked with a look of respect, “Are… Are you the Supreme Elder’s disciple?”“That’s right. My name is Tyrone Lemmington. I’m his youngest disciple.” The young man smiled widely, but his smile only sent chills down everyone’s backs.They noticed that he was holding a human head in his head.“Mr. Lemmington, what… What’s that?” John felt his head going numb.Tyrone replied nonchalantly, “Oh, him? I think he’s called Kenny Fort. I heard that he’s the Harrigans' enemy in the shipping business, so I killed him on my way here.“His head is my meeting gift for you.”Tyrone said this in a carefree manner as if he were talking about something unimportant.“What? That’s Kenny?”“It really is Kenny. I can’t believe that the leader of South River’s shipping business is dead just like that!” “The Supreme Elder’s disciple helped

    Chase was worried that something would happen to Quinn after he crippled Huey.That was why he personally picked up Quinn to and from work in the next two days.Since discovering that Quinn had lied to him about that night, his attitude toward her had turned cold. After all, no one liked to be lied to.Quinn had sensed this as well. However, she had been busy at work and keeping up to date with Mandy, which was why she did not really ask about it.That morning, Chase noticed the entrance to Blizzard Group crowded when he sent Quinn to the company.Security was dispatched, but the guards were unable to control the crowd.All around, the media staff were clicking madly away on their cameras.“This is an unethical company. How dare you sell low-quality cosmetics to us? Give us back our money!”“That’s right! My wife was disfigured because of their cosmetics. She’s still at the hospital.”“Come one, everyone! Let’s take down this unethical company!”The people crowding there were

    Once Chase released the tattooed man, Quinn looked at him and said, “Sir, is there some sort of misunderstanding here?”“There’s nothing to misunderstand. My wife’s face became swollen after using your company’s cosmetics. She’s now in the emergency room, and the doctors say that her life might be at risk.”The tattooed man shouted and cried as he banged on the floor. “Give my wife her face back.”“I think you must be mistaken, sir. Our company’s product has gone through strict safety testing. Nothing of the sort would happen…” Quinn explained patiently.“This man is telling the truth. I can prove it.”A middle-aged woman stepped forward to say, “My daughter used your company’s cosmetics as well, and her body began to rot. Pus is coming out of her wounds. She’s been crying about committing suicide every day…“If anything happens to my daughter, I… I’ll die in front of your company.”The woman sat on the floor and cried pitifully.“I can also prove it…”Two other women stepped

    Chase's words sank in.Everyone was stunned.The tattooed man felt like he had just been humiliated. He said red-faced, “Nonsense! Why would you say I don’t have a wife? I just told you that she's in the emergency room.”“Do you know him, Chase?” Quinn could not help asking.Even Mandy was looking at him curiously.She did not have much of an impression of this man. Her deepest impression of him was when she had arrested him at the bus station and he was later bailed out by Quinn.Chase shook his head as everyone looked at him. “I don’t know him. To be precise, it’s the first time I’ve met him.”“What?!”Everyone exclaimed immediately as they thought they had heard wrong.Why would Chase say that man did not have a wife when Chase had not met the man before?“Stop complicating the situation, Collins,” Elaine, who had never liked Chase, said brusquely.Did this jerk know where he was? All Chase did was embarrass Quinn.Quinn was exasperated. She was about to berate Chase w

    “What stupid question is that? Of course, she is.”“You’re lying too.”Chase sneered and said, “You’re barren. You can’t have a biological daughter.”“Nonsense! You’re that one who's barren. I curse your entire family to be barren!” the middle-aged woman said shrilly. She acted like she was afraid of being exposed in public.Mandy’s smile faltered as she looked at Chase. “You can tell this by looking at her face?”“Yes,” Chase replied with a nod.“Take a look at mine, then. I’ll tell you if it’s accurate,” Mandy sneered and said.“What would you like to know?” Chase asked.Mandy said, “Tell me what my parents’ occupations are.”Chase stared at her for a few seconds and suddenly shook his head to say, “You lost your parents when you were young. There’s no occupation to speak of.”His words sank in.Everyone stared at Mandy. They wanted to find out if what Chase said was true.Quinn’s pretty face turned pale. She looked at Chase in disappointment.Mandy blew her top in front

    "David, you know this guy?" Mandy asked out of curiosity.Stifling a laugh, David replied, "You bet I do, Officer Coleman. He's the son of my distant relative. He was born impotent, and that's why he's still a bachelor now in his 30s."Due to his circumstances, he gave up on himself and simply became gay. Word has it that he's a bottom. Not only that, he even did drugs under the influence of a few bad friends and was ultimately diagnosed with AIDS."He was sent to a drug rehabilitation center half a year ago. I didn't expect him to get out of rehab so soon."Hearing these words, Mandy was stunned, along with Quinn and everyone else.This was because what David said just now was exactly the same as what Chase had said earlier."Chase was able to know all that just by looking at his face? How is that possible?" Mandy could not help but ask incredulously.Equally stunned at David's words, Quinn could not help but scan the crowd. She was trying to see if Chase was still around somew

    Hearing Mandy's words, Susan finally realized the severity of her crimes. Bursting into tears, she wailed, "I confess! I confess to my crimes. We were all just following orders from Mr. Huey. I promise not to do it again."Seeing her reaction, the other guy who was also pointed out by Monkey earlier confessed to his crime as well and offered his full cooperation.Mandy walked up to Susan and asked, "Let me ask you something. Do you really have a daughter?"Hearing her question, Susan crumpled to the ground and cried, "No, I don't. That man was right about me earlier. I-I became infertile when I was 16 years old due to multiple abortions. I've been unable to have children since then..."Although she had mentally prepared herself, Mandy was still shocked.Chase got it right again! Did he really master the art of face reading?!Her mood sank suddenly when she recalled him mentioning that her parents were both dead."Take all of them to the station and ask Huey Harrigan to meet me n

    "Kill him!"These martial artists were all powerful fighters. Even the weakest among them was a peak eighth-tier semi-saint. They sensed with their consciousness that Halver had been defeated.All of the Webers' powerhouses were filled with hate and anger. They took out their weapons and lunged toward Chase in an attack.The look in Chase's eye became even colder when the Webers retaliated. "I'll destroy the Webers today and get those two medicinal herbs after."A huge sword shadow formed behind Chase. The sword flash swept in all directions, destroying all of the weapons in the attack against Chase.Chase took another step forward. The sword in hand dazzled so brightly that it hurt the eyes. The light covered every corner as if about to destroy everything.It took only a short time for the Webers' powerhouses to be slaughtered. They did not even have the chance to retaliate. They were as weak as sick chickens.Cletus was shocked, feeling his hair stand on end. It felt like deat

    Everyone was delighted.Halver Weber, the master of the Weber Secret Sect, was a peak martial arts saint. He was the second most powerful man after the Supreme Elder of the Webers.Two old men in black stood next to him with powerful auras. One of them was the leader of the Webers' Enshrined, Dennis Cloy. The other man was Halver's brother, Cletus."Who are you? How dare you barge into the Weber residence?! Don't you know that the Webers are Capital City's top family?" Halver said with a cold look on his face."Top family?" Chase laughed condescendingly and said with indifference, "I heard that the Webers possess two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. Bring them out here. Give me those herbs and the Webers will live. Otherwise…"Chase paused at this point. He swept a glance at all the Webers present. A cynical smile appeared on his face. "This isn't much. The Webers are nothing to me!"Halver was enraged and roared, "What arrogance! Don't blame us for retaliating with force now t

    Meanwhile, Chase was glowing in gold light, looking like a God of War.He was dressed to hunt, and there was a cold look in his eye. He displayed no emotions, acting like all he had done was kill an ant.Chase pulled out his sword, where blood was dripping down the blade.He turned to leave and headed to look for the Webers. Now that he was done with the Starks, it was time to take care of the Webers.Chase thought about this as he walked there. The Starks were one of the most wealthy families in Capital City. It did not bother him to destroy the Starks, but he had to find a good reason to do so or it might make others suspicious."Forget about it. I'll destroy the Weber Secret Sect first before thinking about this."Not long after, Chase arrived at the door of the Weber Secret Sect. He pushed the door open and strode in.The guards of the Weber Secret Sect saw Chase barge in and shouted, "Who dares come into the Weber Secret Sect?!" Chase kept silent as he continued walking i

    "Who exactly is that young man? Why haven't I heard of him? The Starks are finished for making such a powerful enemy."Chase was decisive and resolute. He was ruthless, which frightened many of the Starks' guards.He closed his eyes to rest. Thin, black smoke began wafting out of his body and it eventually covered everything around Chase. No one was able to get near him.This was a lonely mountain peak that was far away from the bustling city.After some time, a car came by and parked near the mountain."Bastard!"Someone roared in misery. Theo Stark jumped out of his car. He was furious and roared with great anger.He looked at the abandoned house in front of him. Sorrow, fear, and revenge consumed him. His roars echoed all around."Chase Collins! Where is my son, Tank?!"He ran toward the ruins crazily.Just as Theo was about to get inside, he suddenly sensed a great danger. The next thing he knew, the mountain began shaking. It felt like the sky was about to fall. Theo was

    Something sped by in the air, and several powerful auras were coming in close."Who are you? How dare you slaughter the Starks?"The man in the lead grunted coldly. He had a spear in his hand and came speeding over in a flash to stab Chase in the back.Chase did not look back. He raised his left hand and flicked his finger. There was a loud bang, and the spear broke into pieces. Turning back, he waved his hand. The dagger shot out midair and stabbed right between the man's eyes."H-How is this possible…" The man's eyes widened as he looked at Chase in disbelief. His mouth moved as if trying to say something, but his body gradually turned cold and stiff. This happened in a flash.By the time the other powerful auras appeared, the man with the spear was dead."Who are you?!" The two men were shocked. They were looking at Chase in great astonishment."I should be the one asking who you are," Chase sneered, his eyes narrowing.The two old men stepped forward and said in a deep voic

    Chase saw that the entire living room was covered in blood. The walls were filled with various frightening torture tools."Is this how the Starks treat their guests?" Chase's expression was cold. He said this slowly and carefully, making sure every word was heard.The Starks!They were crossing the line!"Who's there?!"An angry voice was heard from deep inside the house. It was followed by violent coughing.A young man with messy hair struggled to stand. He was covered in blood. An arm fell limply below his shoulders. The cut on it was clean, and it was a horrifying sight to see.His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Chase. "You worthless ant, you—pfft!"He only managed a few words before his throat caught something and he coughed up blood."Who are you? The Starks have never crossed paths with you. Why do you want me dead?!" He was a member of the Starks, and he questioned Chase with clenched teeth.A name immediately appeared in Chase's mind at the sight of this Stark fa

    The elder was furious with what the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bug did."Damn it! You destroyed everything I had!"He was filled with anger. His eyes were red as he yelled hysterically. His voice was shrill, and it sounded like the shrill of a banshee."Did you think you were the only one who knew how to use voodoo?" Chase grunted coldly."Impossible! How could you know restricted mystical techniques?" The elder was in disbelief. Only a direct descendent of the clan was qualified to cultivate the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bug."Nothing is impossible in this world," Chase said with conviction.He flicked his fingers after that, and a green talisman appeared. It exploded with a loud bang and formed into a burning ball of flame.Two balls of flame came flying over and sat on each side of Chase's shoulder. The flames burned furiously as they formed into fire armor that covered him. His defense increased."You must die…"The elder laughed crazily.He waved his hand, and two wooden puppets

    Chase's eyes narrowed as he observed the mountain of gold and jewels gleaming before him. They were treasures of immense value.He cast a cold glance at the glittering heap and shook his head. "These baubles are worth less than your pitiful insects. They don't even qualify to buy your life."Before his words faded, Chase extended his hand, unleashing a sharp burst of sword energy.The sword energy tore through the treasure, shattering the gold and jewels into dust, leaving not a single piece intact."I told you, you'll die a miserable death." The elder clenched his teeth while his fists trembled with rage.Suddenly, the space around them became distorted. A strange and eerie energy weaved itself into a cage that encased Chase."Devouring Spirit Ghost Domain!" the elder roared, his bloodshot eyes wide with madness. "You're doomed! I'll make you suffer every imaginable torment before you die!"Chase felt the oppressive atmosphere around him intensify, the air thick with the mournf

    "You're doomed!" the elder spat venomously, his eyes ablaze with hatred.The Gold Devouring Voodoo Bugs were not so easily eradicated. Their corpses would transform into sustenance for dormant eggs within them, allowing the swarm to regrow stronger and more voracious than before. Eventually, they would consume their hosts' life essence entirely."I'll make sure you'll die without even leaving a corpse behind!" the elder bellowed, his voice tinged with madness.The desolate front yard crumbled under the destructive force of their battle, leaving not a single brick or stone intact.The elder's tattered robes fell apart, revealing a body covered in deep sword wounds. Blood gushed out from every gash. Yet he persisted, his resolve remaining unshaken. He believed Chase was merely a newly-ascended peak semi-saint, far from being a match for him."You won't win—not while I have the Gold Devouring Voodoo Bugs!" he roared, his bloodshot eyes burning with frenzy.
